In gold and base metal exploration carried out in an area located approximately 50 km south-east of Oodnadatta, no significant gold or other trace metal values were obtained from surface geochemical sampling of the basal conglomerate unit of the...

The 2000 Mt Wintinna coal deposit is located approximately 700 km north-northwest of Port Augusta in South Australia. The area has opencut potential, and is proposed for development to supply a thermal power station. Meekatharra Minerals Ltd holds...

Exploration as part of a continuing regional search for possible diamondiferous kimberlites was undertaken 70 km west-northwest of Roxby Downs. Extensive sampling of current drainage lines in interdune swales, plus loam sampling in other...

The sources of target aeromagnetic signatures in an area about 40 km northeast of Granite Downs Homestead were interpreted to be at depths greater than 100 m, and attributable to acid intrusives rather than kimberlites. Rock chip and lag sampling...

Diamond exploration undertaken along part of the western flank of the Peake and Denison Ranges, 120 km north-east of Coober Pedy, was aimed at discovering the source(s) of nine microdiamonds and of widespread diamondiferous kimberlitic indicator...

Exploration for possible roll-front sedimentary uranium deposits developed in porous and arenaceous Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous sediments of the Algebuckina Sandstone and Cadna-owie Formation, where these onlap likely uranium-providing...

TARGET: Possible sedimentary uranium, leached from crystalline rocks of the Musgrave Block and concentrated in sediments of the Eromanga Basin, in settings associated with the basal Mesozoic unconformity. EXPLORATION: 1:80 000 scale photogeological...

Exploration was aimed at delineating favourable lithologies within Eromanga Basin sediments for hosting sedimentary uranium, which may have leached from the crystalline rocks of the Musgrave Ranges located to the west of the licence area. As part of...

Fourteen rotary holes were drilled totalling 1362 metres. Coal was intersected as thin stringers in the Cretaceous Cadna-owie Formation in MU-3 and MU-13, and as a 1 metre thick seam in the Permian Mount Toondina Formation in MU-2, but is not...

Reconnaissance prospecting, plus close inspections and sampling of historically briefly worked auriferous areas in the basal Mesozoic sediments on the banks of the Neales River, suggest that any reserves and grades present there would be insufficient...

Exploration for shallowly buried, surface mineable Permian coal in sediments deposited along the southern rim of the Boorthanna Trough, approximately 50 km south-west of William Creek, has consisted of a review of existing geological and gravity data,...

The STRZELECKI 1:250 000 map area lies adjacent to the NSW border in the centre of the Strzelecki Desert, and covers some of the main hydrocarbon producing areas in SA around Moomba. Most of these oil and gas fields are located in the northern half of...

The Peake and Denison Inliers (comprising the Davenport Range, Denison Range and small basement inliers to the east) form the dominant geological structure on WARRINA. The Inliers include outcrops of Palaeoproterozoic metamorphic basement which is...
